The " Rockster" is finnally heading out west! Actually, it looks awesome without the soft top on it! Kenny did a great job with the cage! Twisted Stitch will be redoing the top when it gets to Cali!

It has a 2.5" Long Arm System with 3.5" of stretch. We are actually planning on on offering this as a production system for 2 doors at a 2.5" and 3.5" lift height. The frame has been cleaned up from its years of travel on the East Coast!

Here are a few images of it back on the stock tires and wheels! Once it gets out west it is going to Todd and The Jeep Speed Shop where a dana 60 front and Corp 14 bolt rear will be slid underneath it. Poly Performance is welding on all the axle brackets so the old school axles will bolt right up. RWK Haus Supply is building the axles stuffed with High Quality Yukon Products.

While at the Jeep Speed Shop an LS engine swap will also take place! By the Time it leaves the Jeep Speed Shop it will be on Race Line Wheels and 40" Tires!

The Rockster is missing shocks and bumps for now! Fox shocks and air bumps will be installed to handle the dampening duties and control the high speed up travel of the massive 40's and heavy axles. Stay tuned for final assembly pictures. The "Rockster" will also be in our booth at the Pomona Offroad Expo with the Top Off unless it is raining.

Great Work Kenny! Now it is off to the next phase! Good Luck to Todd at Jeep Speed Shop and the rest of the guys finnishing up the "Rockster"

Damn this Jeep is so bad ass! I think I'm going to need one :D

How soon will you guys be offering that lift kit for the 2-door? Will there be an upgrade kit as well say if I can wait and end up getting one of your other suspension systems and then end up wanting to go to this? :beer:
 
I love how this has turned out but I am curious if there is a specific reason the top is so pointed at the rear or if that is just the way it ended up? The thing is badass but it kinda got me to thinking about what it would look like with a graduated curve into the rear of the Jeep. This is what I came up with and I'm just curious, not bashing the design at all!

LS in a Jeep JK

The Jeep Runs and it runs good it will take some drive time to make the computer learn, but it really runs good at low end it pulls hard.

So with River Raider and the Jeep Speed shop doing all this kick ass work on this jeep, is it not too far off to think that an LS3 swap like this may be coming down the line, maybe when the beefed up axle conversion kits come?

A guy can dream...:D

When some of the guys get back from Pomona hopefully the kit will make its way onto the website. It's really nothing majorly different from the normal JK long arm kits, just the rear arms are custom length for the stretch. In otherwords it would be very easy to swap out the standard wheelbase arms for the stretch arms. If you did want the whole kit sooner than later we can set you up.
